The over began with a wide from Bhuvneshwar Kumar, but he quickly tightened things up. Naman Dhir struggled to get going, managing only a single as pressure built from both ends.
Rohit Sharma briefly tried to counter with a classy boundary, but Bhuvneshwar had the final word. A perfectly disguised knuckle ball outside off tempted Rohit into a drive, and a thick edge flew straight to the keeper, where a sharp take sealed the wicket. Rohit departed for a quick 22 off 10, and the RCB camp erupted.
To make matters worse for MI, Suryakumar Yadav walked in at No. 4 but was dismissed first ball -- a shocking double blow that left the batting unit stunned.
By the end of the over, MI were reeling at 28 for 3 after 3 overs, with Bhuvneshwar once again proving why he remains such a dangerous powerplay weapon.
Mumbai Indians slipped into deep trouble in a dramatic third over as momentum completely shifted in favour of Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
